Aquarium Advice Activist
Okay, I've spoke about my new 55 gallon and had some questions for you guys on it and I really apreciate your advice. Well here she goes.
In this picture is the stand and canopy sanded down to bare wood. If you look inside, you'll see the cherry color stain it had on it. Also, proudly sitting next to it is my big bad fluval I got a smokin' deal on. WOOT!
Tank, looking like dookie.
As I mentioned, I had my husband sand it down and then paint it black. I worked for hours today cleaning the tank and painting the back of it black. Turned out pretty good I think. Started my fishless cycle tonight, took some water from my little 10G and added it to this water to help push things along a little bit.
A nicer picture showing off the lights. It's FULL of air bubbles!!
Now I need some decor and live stock. Here's what I have planned out when cycling is complete
1 - 12" pleco (friend rehoming his)
1 - blood red parrot
2 - german blue rams
4 - Angelfish
few fresh water clams
Do I have room for a small school of something that would get a long with the rest?
Thanks for looking and I will update this post when I have more stuff in it.
